Replacing underlining and symbols problem
I am attempting to convert "greater than" and "less than" underlined symbols
to "greater than or equal to" and "less than or equal to" symbols in Word 2003. When I record a macro, the process works fine. It converts the underlined greater/less than symbols to the correct one and leaves the not underlined greater/less than symbols alone and gets rid of the underlining. However, when I test the macro, it changes both the underlined symbol and the not underlined symbol and converts it to the greater/less than or equal to symbol, AND leaves the underlining. What can I do to ensure it only converts the symbol that is underlined and leaves the not underlined symbol alone, and gets rid of the underlining? Here is the code the recorder came up with: Sub Test11() ' ' Test11 Macro ' Macro recorded 3/27/2008 by nc6404 ' Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting With Selection.Find .Text = "" .Replacement.Text = ChrW(8805) .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = True .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False End With Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll End Sub I've tried inserting some font.underline code to the mix, but that doesn't work either: Sub Test8() ' ' Test7 Macro Edit ' Macro recorded 3/27/2008 by nc6404 ' Selection.Find.ClearFormatting Selection.Find.Replacement.ClearFormatting With Selection.Find .Text = "" .Font.Underline = wdUnderlineSingle .Replacement.Text = ChrW(8805) .Font.Underline = wdUnderlineNone .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = True .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False End With Selection.Find.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll End Sub Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. |
